Abstract
An iterative decoder and decoding method for decoding a binary block code defined by a parity check matrix. The parity matrix is processed several times row-by-row so that each iteration of the decoding corresponds to the decoding of the code defined by a row of the matrix for received data. For decoding an extended code, each row defines two separate codes which are decoded with each iteration.
